A rare opportunity to own a unique piece of Wymondham’s heritage, with origins dating back to 1789. Formerly known as the Rule & Compasses Public House, this historic property transitioned to residential use following its closure in April 1967 and is now offered to market with no onward chain, enabling a swift and straightforward completion. Set on an impressive one-third of an acre plot, the property includes several outbuildings and offers significant scope for extension and development (STPP). The current accommodation extends to approximately 2,000 sq ft, providing generous space and exciting potential to create a truly exceptional family home. Although updating and modernisation are required, the size of the plot, the flexibility of the layout, and the charming rural feel combine to make this a highly desirable project for those seeking character, space, and the chance to place their own stamp on a historic home. With open field views on all sides, the setting offers peace and privacy while remaining close to all essential amenities. Conveniently located near highly regarded schools, Wymondham town centre, and frequent bus and rail links to Norwich and Cambridge, as well as easy access to the A11 for commuters, this property delivers both countryside appeal and everyday convenience.
